im just really confused, ive been reading OC guides for days straight now.

i get the lower timings are better . . . but dont see any reviews of the mushkin from p35 board owners.

just trying to get some last minute advice before i pull the trigger - i want newegg to get this to me by sat!!!

pulled the trigger on teh gskill - lots of good reviews and compatibility with the p35 board

thanks to all --- time to start modding the antec 900!!
